But many of them are criticised for being so-called 'paper parks' - meaning although they exist on government maps, in practice, there's little policing and destructive activities like trawling - which involves the use of huge net to collect everything in the water - are still allowed. 

So, are Marine Protected Areas working, and what can we do to improve them?

But scientists believe that these magnificent animals deserve our attention. Many species of shark are in danger because of human activity and we really need them for our ecosystems to survive and thrive. 

So, should we change our way of thinking about sharks? Should we care and protect them more than we do?

But these ecosystems are dying because of pollution, overfishing, and the effects of climate change. And if the corals die, so will many other animals that depend on them. 

What can be done? Can we repair the damage? Can these and other precious ecosystems like sea grasses and mangroves not only be preserved, but also actively restored? 

To answer these questions we speak with Prof Carlos Duarte, Executive Director of the Coral Research & Development Accelerator Platform (CORDAP), and with an ocean acidification expert and IPCC contributor, Prof Jean-Pierre Gattuso, also research director at the Laboratoire d'Océanographie de Villefranche-sur-Mer.
